London Red Bus

Son loves it. Great activity and nice finished product to use as pen pot.

This was a present for my granddaughter forChristmas and she started it straight away and didn’t stop whilst she’d finished it. She said it was good fun to do and would sit on her deskWith her pens in.

The puzzle can be fitted together following a chart, or you can work it out yourself. A little more difficult that you expect as some of the pieces fit in more than one place. There are hinged pieces that form the corners and plastic parts that provide the base, wheels and roof. Fits together and stays together well. Could be used as a pencil holder with the roof removed or 2 bins could hold smaller items with the roof replaced to cover them.There's an impression of drivers and passengers seen through the windows

Ordered for my 7 year old to keep him busy and have something useful afterwards, he loved putting it together and it looks really cool once made and with his stationary in it, but the design at the front of the shoe is not perfect and often moves itself away from the base..

I brought this for my son for Xmas (at his request) although he is younger than the stated age range. The puzzle pieces are well made and fit as they should and it actually takes more time sorting the pieces into order than it does to build the bus! Overall really pleased with the product though as it kept us occupied for a decent amount of time and the end result doubles up as a useful storage pot.I’d recommend this product and would like to try others form the range. Makes a nice difference to the standard jigsaw format.

My granddaughter was very excited to receive this on her birthday, she was looking forward to putting it together to sit on top of her homework desk

This was a gift for my 14 yo son who has ASD and LDs. He's great at puzzles and loves buses so it seemed ideal. However - it could have been packaged up so that the pieces are grouped together in smaller groupings! It's not a very intuitive way to build a jigsaw, going by number. If you turn all the pieces picture side up it's harder than a regular jigsaw. So he had a fairly boring build going by number order. He liked doing it though, although found the way the sides 'fit' into the chassis very frustrating! (There are tiny pegs on the back of some pieces that fit into tiny holes on the framework and basically, they don't.) Once the roof was on (be warned, the initial frame piece is really tricky to fit on, mostly because it's very hard to snap the pieces together absolutely flatly) it becomes a lot more stable. I don't anticipate that this will be robust enough for any sort of play though (to be fair it's not designed for that).

My son (9 years old) is in love with it. It took him not long to finish it. ‘I love the identical London Bus. It is useful as a pencil holder, it can roll as a toy as well’. That’s what he said. It is quite sturdy after building. Totally recommend.
